Oh have the mighty fallen...



'That 70s Show' Actress Pleads Guilty in Drunk Driving Case - FoxNews.com

Quote:
The actress who played Eric Foreman's older sister on "That 70s Show" has pled guilty to driving while intoxicated in North Carolina,TMZ has learned.

Lisa Robin Kelly -- who was mysteriously replaced on the sitcom after Season 5 -- was arrested on August 21 after cops suspected she was driving under the influence of alcohol. Kelly was taken to a nearby jail where she spent the night behind bars.

But in November, the 40-year-old pleaded guilty to one count of DWI -- and was sentenced to 12 months of unsupervised probation.

She was also ordered to pay a fine.

As for the good news -- the mug shot's an instant classic!

I don't know how mighty she is/was, as I've never seen the show, but what a trainwreck!

That girl didn't just get drunk one time, she's been abusing herself for a while.

Looking at the photo... There's a lot going on there.

I've seen it happen first hand. There was one lady who when I met her was an absolute babe. She was 37 at the time and looked like she was in her 20s.
Fast forward to 44...
She's a hopeless alcoholic and now has Coeliac's disease. Coeliac disease - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I still talk to her but she refuses to see me in real life because of the way she looks.
Absolutely tragic...

I have never heard of her. She does look like a poster child for drugs abuse.

Maybe we should hook her up with Mel Gibson.

For those unfamiliar with the show:
Quote:
Lisa Robin Kelly as Laurie Forman (seasons 2–3; recurring, season 1, 5): Eric's beautiful but evil older sister. Laurie enjoys tormenting Eric and manipulating her parents. She is very promiscuous, often seen with different men, mainly Eric's friend Kelso, who cheats on his girlfriend Jackie. Eric, Hyde, and Donna often mock her promiscuity. She also has a strained relationship with her mother who thinks of her as a freeloader. She leaves the series during the third season but returns in a recurring role during the fifth. In season five, she and Fez marry to prevent him from getting deported. In season six, she is portrayed by a different actress, Christina Moore.
Quote:
Kelly won the part of Laurie, the promiscuous elder sister of Eric Forman on That '70s Show. After three years, she left the show; it was explained that her character had left to attend beauty school.

She briefly returned to the show in the fifth season in four episodes, but was replaced with Christina Moore.

If she wasn't an alcoholic before, having that photo plastered all over the internet will surely drive her to it. In her defense, nobody looks good in a mug shot.

a well trained make-up artist and a good photographer could make her look as good as new.

I know nothing about this woman, never heard of her, but it must be interesting to be in a profession where the pool of available jobs collapses by 80% (more?) as you approach 40 y/o. Celebrate your 39th b-day and know that your career is all but over. Might drive me to drink too.

My son was a model. At 30 he was too old. He's on the other side of the camera now, but says in 20-25 years there'll be a market for his face again.

One of my friends has been doing modeling gigs. She is around 60 y/o, and very beautiful. Apparently there is a market for "mature models" though not a large market.

I thought this was going to be a thread about Donovan McNabb.

Hey now! We all have woken up with worse so give the gal a break. No one looks good on a mug shot...

Given some treatment and AA she could turn her life around and end up being a nice person.
